Talk+About+the+Middle+-+Avoid+Polarization

"Let's talk about the Middle and Avoiding Polarization."

"Well, what is it?" "Polarization is extremes; either/or, good or bad, black or white. It's either all one way or the other, no gray area. Try to avoid polarization and look at the gray area. The middle would be the gray area, different opinions and perceptions of certain situations."

"Can you give me an example, please" "An example would be the topic of abortion. People are for it and people are against it and the gray area would be people who are for it in certain situations and against it in others."

"Oh, so another example would be politics. People can be strict democrats or strict republicans and the gray area would be people who are for or against certain issues and ideas verses a particular political party."

"Yes. So, what should we do instead?" "Instead we should be more open minded, read between the lines and be less judgmental and pay attention to the gray areas."
